Chapter 155 Death of Wu Dalang

"If they don't gamble, and the Sunflower Clan doesn't disband, I won't be able to see you, brother."

Zhu Wushuang smiled, grabbed Bai Zhantang's hand and said.

Seeing Li Xin next to him, he thought that Zhu Wushuang was secretly in love with her senior brother.

She won't say it because she has low self-esteem, but judging from her performance just now, it's a certainty.

Li Xin could tell that Tong Xiangyu almost looked at it with a magnifying glass, so it was naturally clearer.

She clenched her hands into fists under the table, trying to hold back her anger.

"Shuang, this is fate."

However, Bai Zhantang was a fan of the authorities and thought it was normal for his junior sister to be so close to him.

He also patted Zhu Wushuang's hand, and said: "It's getting late, and you've been busy all the way, senior brother will arrange a guest room for you."

"There are no more rooms."

Tong Xiangyu said suddenly.

He deliberately raised his voice, still with a sneer on his face.

Bai Zhantang didn't turn his head to see her expression, he thought it was true, the inn was full recently, how could there be any vacant rooms.

There are many customers and business is busy, so Tong Xiangyu was forced to raise everyone's wages.

A monthly increase of [-] Wen is not an ordinary pick.

"Brother, there are still vacant rooms there!"

Bai Zhantang looked at Li Xin, although he used a question, his tone was very firm.

"Have."

The latter nodded.

"That's it!"

Bai Zhantang said to Zhu Wushuang: "Sister, you can live in my brother's house with peace of mind, and I will arrange a better place for you when conditions permit."

"I can't help it, Bai Zhantang!"

But Tong Xiangyu broke out at this moment.

Li Xin and Zhu Wushuang were fine, mainly because Bai Zhantang was taken aback and turned to look at her.

"How do you arrange it if you have the conditions? Do you want to hide the beauty in the golden house!"

Tong Xiangyu roared.

"Speak softly, don't wake up all the guests to watch our jokes, and what is Jinwu Zangjiao, why do you say it so ugly?"

Bai Zhantang stepped forward to coax her.

Tong Xiangyu shook off his hand, pointed at his nose and said, "I tell you, take her with you if you have the ability, if you want to stay in the inn with her, there is no door!"

"Can you stop making trouble for no reason? Wushuang is my junior sister. She came to join me on purpose. Can I not take care of her?"

Bai Zhantang took Tong Xiangyu's hand away and tried his best to explain.

"Okay, okay, you still want to do something to me now, don't you! I can see your true face clearly now, ruthless and shameless! Despicable and obscene!"

Tong Xiangyu, almost crying, went up to scuffle with Bai Zhantang.

"Ah, what are you doing... Brother, you take Wushuang back first, you have nothing to do here!"

Bai Zhantang grabbed Tong Xiangyu's hands and urged Li Xin and Li Xin to leave.

He didn't want to be watched the whole time in such an embarrassing way.

"Miss Zhu, you also saw that your senior brother is a bit busy and can't leave now. My house is just across the street. Shall I arrange a place for you first?"

Li Xin said to Zhu Wushuang.

"Oh, thank you."

Zhu Wushuang naturally accepted it.

She was not familiar with the place here, and the senior brother who had defected asked her to listen to Li Xin's arrangements, so she obediently listened.

So she followed Li Xin and left the inn step by step.

Seeing her reluctant appearance, it is obvious that she has just reunited with Bai Zhantang, and she hasn't seen enough and said enough.

It's a pity that Luo Hua intends to be ruthless.

This relationship is doomed to fruitlessness.

Li Xin led her into the alley, and soon reached the gate of the house.

Zhu Wushuang was not surprised when she entered the mansion three times. After all, she is a disciple of the Sunflower Sect, and she lived in the sect's headquarters before.

Although it is the last one, it belongs to the worst martial arts.

But they are also formal disciples who have received the true instruction and are qualified to practice "Sunflower Acupuncture Hand".

There are more non-true disciples in the sect, and many of them are not as good at martial arts as Zhu Wushuang, and they are the kind who are used as cannon fodder whenever they have something to do.

In the same way, although Bai Zhantang mentioned to Li Xin that he was the second-to-last martial artist in the Sunflower Sect, he never said how many true disciples he had.

There is plenty of scope for that.

"Yurong, this is Miss Zhu Wushuang, please arrange a guest room for her."

After entering the house, Li Xin summoned Yurong to give instructions.

Zhu Wushuang followed Yu Rong away.

He also went back to the house, ready to rest.

……

On the second day, as soon as Li Xin walked out of the room, he saw Zhu Wushuang sweeping the floor in the yard.

Standing next to him, Yurong was a little at a loss, and when she saw Li Xin, she said, "Master, I hope that Miss Zhu must help with chores, and I can't persuade her."

"I did it voluntarily, don't blame her! After sweeping the floor, I want to see my senior brother, is that okay?"

Zhu Wushuang said.

"Miss Zhu, you are a guest here, how can you restrict your freedom? If you are worried about your senior brother Bai, don't sweep this place, go to the opposite inn to have a look."

Li Xin laughed.

"How can this work? Sweeping the floor and sweeping halfway, isn't it halfway!"

Zhu Wushuang said, speeding up his movements.

Although it has become faster, it is still meticulous and sweeps the ground clean.

Then she went to the inn.

Needless to say, Bai Zhantang and Tong Xiangyu are still in a stalemate, Zhu Wushuang will not be accepted by Tong Xiangyu in the past.

At the end of the day, under Bai Zhantang's instructions, she rushed to do any job, and did everything so that no one could find fault.

Even his cooking skills are obviously better than Li Dazui.

Zhu Wushuang is a hexagonal all-rounder when the inn is overwhelmed.

If it were another boss, it would be too late to please her, but Tong Xiangyu was just being picky, trying to drive her away in different ways.

In this regard, Li Xin will naturally not be idle and go to the inn to witness it with his own eyes.

He also came to the door today.

First of all, he received an invitation card from Wanfu Wan Zhenshan who invited him to a party held by merchants in this town.

The time is set for the day after tomorrow.

Li Xin had never had any contact with Wan Fu, so he felt very awkward when he received the invitation suddenly.

The name is a gathering of merchants, but except for Jia's Mansion, which almost monopolizes the most profitable businesses, the rest of the merchants in the town are small businesses, and the several industries under Wan Zhenshan's name are considered large-scale.

Li Xin only opened Jiayi Red House, which is now in the nature of a teahouse, so he can barely be regarded as a small boss, and he is not qualified to enter Wan Zhenshan's circle at all.

"yuangfang, how do you think?"

"My lord, then Wan Zhenshan must have a plan!"

After discussing with Li Yuanfang, they decided to discuss again, whether to go or not, anyway, it is not too late to choose the day after tomorrow.

Putting the invitation on hold, Su Can actually came to the door near noon.

He also led the horse that Li Trust had given to Xiaomi.

In fact, it was Su Can who purposely lost to Xiaomi in the gambling game in order to come here to spread the word, and was "forced" to accept the errand work of returning the horse.

He brought news of Li Mochou's master and apprentice, saying that they left Yunlai Inn and headed west.

"Are they gone?"

Li Xin was a little strange, but within reason.

Maybe Li Mochou wanted to change to a clean place to heal his wounds, or suddenly wanted to do other things, such as feeling upset and wanting to kill someone to change his mood.

Li Xin was too lazy to guess what the devil was thinking.

He asked again why Su Can and the beggars suddenly left Yunlai Inn collectively yesterday.

The answer he got was the same as he had guessed, that the beggar gang suddenly wanted to hold an emergency meeting.

The content is that a vice gang leader named Ma Dayuan died.

Or died under his own proud martial arts moves.

This made everyone in the Beggar Clan first think of Gusu Murong's special skill "Fighting the Stars".

However, Murong Fu is not in Yanziwu, so it is difficult to determine his whereabouts, so the beggar gangs from all over the place have to inform all the gang members to help find Murong Fu's trace.

Once found, it must be reported in time.

"Ma Dayuan, Murong Fu..."

Li Xin probably knew what was going on, and understood that Murong Fu was wronged, but he had nothing to say, since the matter was none of his business anyway.

"Ah Can, guess who I saw yesterday?"

Putting aside the topic of the beggar gang, he talked about seeing Su Can's father in the juggling troupe.

Su Can couldn't help being excited when he heard this, but he just pretended to be indifferent.

It just so happened that Li Yuanfang was about to go out to find out where the juggling troupe was staying, and now Su Can decided to follow suit.

After the two left, Li Xin entered the space, had lunch with Qingwen, and then began to practice and exchange medical skills.

Around evening, he came out of the room again.

Just about to call Mingyue to ask if Li Yuanfang came back, Yurong stepped forward and said: "Master, Miss Zhu seems to be leaving, she is packing her bags in the room."

"what happened?"

Li Xin asked casually, but didn't need Yurong to answer, he could guess the reason.

It was clear that he was rejected by Tong Xiangyu. He felt that there was no place for him in Qixia Town, and he didn't want to drag his brother down, so he had to leave.

Li Xin and Yu Rong came to Zhu Wushuang's room.

The door was wide open, and she was tidying up the room and cleaning the table.

That's right, she only stayed for one night, so it didn't take so much time to pack her bags.

She wanted to leave after cleaning up, without causing trouble to anyone at all.

What a nice girl.

"Miss Zhu, I heard from Yurong that you want to leave?"

Li Xin walked into the door and said.

"After I'm done packing, I'll say goodbye to my brother and leave here."

Zhu Wushuang showed a trace of unconcealable sadness on his face.

"Why are you leaving? Is shopkeeper Tong refusing to accept you?"

Li Xin asked.

"Don't blame the shopkeeper, it's because I haven't done well enough."

Zhu Wushuang immediately shook his head.

She wasn't pretending, she really didn't blame Tong Xiangyu.

Her low self-esteem character leads to finding reasons for everything in herself.

"It's okay if she doesn't keep you, I'll keep you! I heard that you are a good cook, and it just so happens that I don't have a serious cook in my family. I want to hire you as a cook, with food and housing included, and a salary of three yuan a month!"

Li Xin gave "high salary" again.

For someone like Zhu Wushuang who is versatile, hardworking, beautiful and capable of martial arts, you can give more, but I am afraid that if you drive too high all of a sudden, she will be scared away, so I will give you three dollars a month first, which is just right.

After all, even Chai Jiu and Heizi had their wages raised recently, each by [-] Wen.

"You, where did you hear that I'm good at cooking? It must be what my brother said..."

The focus of Zhu Wushuang's attention was a bit skewed.

Because she only showed her cooking skills at the Tongfu Inn today, Li Xin probably didn't know about it.

She could only think that it was Bai Zhantang who said it.

"Brother, has he been thinking about me?"

She whispered to herself, even showing a sweet smile.

Li Xin secretly made a mistake, and he accidentally became a pig teammate.

He hurriedly said: "Miss Zhu, what do you agree with the conditions I put forward? If you are not satisfied, you can still discuss it, such as the monthly payment..."

"I am willing!"

Zhu Wushuang agreed without waiting for him to finish speaking.

Seeing the brilliance on her face, Li Xin felt even worse. She must have thought that her feelings might get a response from Bai Zhantang, so she agreed without thinking.

Of course, she would not be wronged if she agreed to the terms of employment.

"Then it's settled. From now on, you will be in charge of the kitchen, and Sai Diaochan and Xiaocui will be in your charge. Let's go to the inn first, explain the situation to your senior brother, and ask Yurong to take you to get to know them when we come back."

Li Xin decided not to think too much. Anyway, without his little help, Zhu Wushuang would know sooner or later that Bai Zhantang only had a brother-sister relationship with her.

"Okay, er... sir?"

Zhu Wushuang tried to imitate Yurong's address.

"Don't! Brother Bai will definitely be dissatisfied when he hears you call me that. You can call me the head of the house, or Brother Li is also fine... May I ask, how old is Miss Zhu?"

Li Xin suddenly remembered the age issue.

Years have passed, and I am now 23 years old.

Zhu Wushuang seemed to be of the same age, and it was not certain who was older or who was younger.

"I'm 23 years old."

Zhu Wushuang thought for a while and said.

"Oh, same as me, we are the same age."

Li Xin nodded.

"Then I'll call you the head of the house, and don't call me Miss Zhu, just call me by my name."

I wish Wushuangdao.

"Ok, deal."

Li Xin made a final decision.

Afterwards, Zhu Wushuang didn't clean up the house anymore. After all, she was a cook and continued to live.

Li Xin walked with her to the Tongfu Inn, and found Bai Zhantang to talk about the matter, and the latter showed a happy face.

"Oh! Brother, you are the most reliable! I was going to tell you this too, and I wanted Wushuang to find a job with you first, but I didn't expect you to solve it in advance."

"It's not like some people, they have small stomachs and chicken intestines, and they don't have the capacity to accommodate people at all."

As Bai Zhantang talked, he beat around the bush and exported it to Tong Xiangyu.

"Brother Bai, please don't say a few words."

Li Xin persuaded immediately.

At the same time, he looked at Tong Xiangyu behind the counter, and sure enough, his chest heaved and he was so angry.

"It's okay, we're not afraid of her."

Bai Zhantang deliberately raised his voice provocatively.

"Bai Zhantang! Hurry up and work, don't you want the monthly money? If the customer is not satisfied with you, you don't even want to get a penny this month!"

Tong Xiangyu hit back.

The current situation between the two is a bit delicate. Although they are in a state of stalemate, it is not serious. As long as one party bows its head, it will be resolved immediately.

But obviously others can't intervene.

Looking at the faces of Lu Xiucai and Guo Furong next to him, he could tell that they had tried to persuade them a long time ago, but it didn't work.

Li Xin also didn't intend to say more, and was about to leave, but he heard someone shouting on the street: "Someone's killed! Killed!"

what happened?

Everyone was shocked, including the guests seated in the lobby.

A few raised their weapons and ran out of the door on the spot to find out what happened.

Bai Zhantang's speed was also dissatisfied, he also ran out and looked to the south where the sound came from.

"It's Wu Dalang! Wu Dalang, who sells sesame seed cakes, has been killed!"

From there came another shout.
